The Cadeleigh Arms in Mid Devon

On the off chance we found this lovely friendly pub and booked a Sunday lunch which was superb. Portion sizes were more than enough and all the staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. We will definitely be visiting again soon. Highly recommend.

Having visited the Cadeleigh Arms a few times, whenever visiting relatives in Tiverton, we were upset that it had closed down. So, we were happy to see it had reopened in March 2024. I popped in for a cheeky pint when passing and came across the new landlord, Raymond. After a fun chat and quick tour it became apparent that this would be a great place to bring my wedding guests for the ‘day after party’ Sunday lunch. Since that day I have visited several times and had lunch with my wife and friends. Each time we have been greeted with open arms by staff and locals alike. When our wedding day finally arrived we made a late booking for 15 people for a pre wedding dinner and drinks. We were given a great welcome and dinner was served without issue. On the Sunday 52 guests arrived and were all served a very generous 3 course meal without any issues. Everyone enjoyed their meals and said that they had not received this level of service in sometime. Vegan options were amazing and portions were huge. Many thanks to Raymond, Pat, Jenny, Jade & Cliff plus their amazing colleagues for making us feel so welcomed. We will see you all very soon. Xx

Went for a huge Sunday lunch after a wedding. The roast was delicious, crumble a winner for me. There were about 30 of us and the service was exceptional. Loved it!

Rung up to book a roast for my family - bloke was very blunt/rude on the phone, I kept repeating myself, asked what meats were being served that day, I got huffing and puffing on the phone because he had to go and check, once informed and I replied thank you and before I could get chance to book a table the phone was put down on me! Lost out on a good money earner and future custom! No wonder their struggling…

We've been staying not too far from this lovely pub and so glad we were, as the food was superb and the staff were very attentive, we also had Luna our beloved German shepherd with us which was no trouble at all as they all loved her even making sure she had some treats while we ate. The landlord Raymond has quite a few yarns to tell, having been in hospitality for most of his life. So be warned you may go in for a quick drink or a simple meal, and end up staying all evening, can only recommend a visit if you're near by, a pure gem.

On holiday in the area. On the way back from a day out called just before last time for food and they fitted us in, which was great. Really friendly staff and superb food. Will be going back tomorrow.

What fun we had, service was🤩, found everything to oblige my NZ friend! . The crumble was best ever. Wish it was my local. Thank you for squeezing us in on a busy Sunday lunch.

What a lovely setting! We just popped in for a cup of tea during a walk, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating considering the pub wasn't actually open at the time! The tea was lovely and the outside seating area at the back, idylic. It'd be a great place to enjoy a pint and some food. We'll definitely be back!

Wednesday night steak night. £38.50 for 2 steaks and a bottle of wine. It was lovely. 29th May 2024.

My husband and I recently called by this gem of a country village pub. The food was absolutely delicious and the service extremely kind and friendly. The cosy open fire contributed greatly towards the warm welcoming atmosphere and definitely a place we'd return to in the future. Well done to the landlord and staff of Cadleigh Arms. The chef himself deserves a gold medal. Keep up the excellent work..Also good parking area....

We came by The Cadeleigh Arms quite by accident while out with our dog for a Saturday afternoon adventure. The landlord was very welcoming and the pub is well furnished, cosy, and homely while also very well presented. We had drinks and crisps and will return for food. An amazing menu including burgers, veggie and vegan, as well as Sunday roasts and a steak deal on Thursdays. Great space for diners, large groups as well as those just wanting a drink. A lovely garden with very comfortable seating. We will return.

We called in for a drink yesterday and after an entertaining chat with Raymond at the bar we thought let's give the food a go and booked a table for this evening. It really couldn't have gone any better than it did. The welcome from the staff is genuine as they clearly want you to enjoy your time there. I ordered the garlic king prawn starter followed by fish & chips and my wife ordered the garlic chicken pasta dish. The whole meal was excellent and a credit to the chef, particularly the breaded fish and the curry sauce. I haven't had fish and chips as good as this for a long long time. We've been travelling round the south coast for the last couple of weeks and eating out most days. I can honestly say the Cadeleigh Arms is doing something different with a real feel of standards and service you sadly don't see that often these days. Well done to all involved. ps if you're going to give it a try be sure to book ahead

We turned up unannounced on a Sunday at 12pm and requested a table for 2.30pm as we had a walk planned in the local area. The staff were extremely welcoming and agreed to fit us in even though they had a table of 10 at the same time. One very tiring and wet walk later we returned to the pub and once again were given an amazingly warm welcome and shown to our table. My wife is gluten free and the chef went to the lengths of preparing her a gluten free cauliflower cheese, gravy and yorkshire pudding to enjoy as part of her meal - amazing! The food was fantastic and the staff were even better, we will definitely be back again and will recommend the pub to family and friends . . . . . . just don't ask Buster to pour you a Guiness! ;-)

Wonderful meal here at Cadeleigh Arms but what really sets it apart is the staff! Raymond and the waitress were absolutely amazing, made us feel so so welcome and such a nice close atmosphere. Will definitely be back 😊

Never wrote a review before, but felt compelled to this time.... Probably the most friendliest and most welcoming pub we've ever been to!! Big family walk on Easter Sunday, and stumbled across this pub. Stopped for a drink and ended up a fantastic sunday roast, a few drinks and a few games of pool. Staff were amazing and the food was delicious. Definitely popping back before the holiday is over.

Absolutely brilliant pub! The food was incredible, and the staff were so friendly. I will definitely be returning as I couldn't rate this pub any higher!!

Best country pub I've been to in a long time. The food was outstanding and at a great price too. The atmosphere is fantastic. 110% would recommend.

A wonderful, friendly, cosy village pub, serving local beer and cider, this pub is run by the community, the food really was excellent! We will certainly be back!

Didn't have food and wouldn't. Dirty place.

As of July 2023, our local pub currently serves drinks and snacks on Friday and Saturday nights only, but it’s brilliant and almost back on track. Lots of cosy places to sit - love it!

Amazing food...taste buds dancing!!! Great ambience and lovely welcoming staff.

Rudest barnan I’ve ever come across! Wouldn’t offer food at 13.32 for 11 people!??

My goodness , Sunday dinner here is simply sensational , we had the roast beef which was just blushing , to me that is perfect ,veg is served separately & is piping hot , delicious & plentiful , roast potatoes were golden , crispy & soft inside , highly recommended

Lovely meal in a great setting. Attentive waitresses and great value for money. Will recommend if you are in the area. Expresso martini was one of the best I have had.

Super dog friendly. Great food and atmosphere

A real shame that the landlady is so officious and bossy. We arrived early thinking we would have a drink but we’re made to feel that this was an imposition. A real shame b cause all the young waiting staff were charming.

Lovely family run pub with locally sourced food and friendly staff. The steak was sublime. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

We visited here today for our granddaughter's birthday treat and are so pleased that we chose this restaurant. We were oven a very warm welcome by the owner. The menu had plenty of choice and meals to suite all tastes, including at least 3 vegan options. Our food was superb, beautifully cooked and presented, fresh local ingredients. We honestly couldn't have been more pleased. My husband waxed lyrical about the wild mushroom and smoked cheese risotto but all the meals over the three courses were superb. This is a gem of a find and somewhere we will definitely be returning to. Highly recommended.

Fabulous food , great Vegan selection and great service. We will be back

Delightful pub set in stunning countryside with a great variety of walks from Cadeleigh village. Greeted with a lovely smile and served a very tasty plate of food. Ale is on point, local and well looked after. Doggie menu available with drinks, main course and pupsicles with all the proceeds going to The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association. The sauce accompanying the lamb burger is out of this world. Decor is lovely, warm and cosy. I will be certainly returning soon. It’s rare to find a pub as nice as this nowadays a real gem.

This is hands down the best gastropub in the area. Amazing food in a lovely venue, with great service from hosts Tina and Nick. It's not a question of if I will visit again, just when.

We were staying about 1 mile from rhis village pub. On our last stay we booked for an evening meal & I mentioned we had a 17wk old puppy as well. We received a lovely warm welcome from the owner & what a joy it was. A lovely window table with a lovely comfy thick bed for puppy as well. Menu's & wine list (even a doggie menu) ❤️on table & a few dog treats!!!!! The food was absolutely delicious & very well presented. Wish we lived nearer to this establishment as it was amazing. Well done to all staff & what a pleasure it was to dine at yours. X

What an amazing place. The staff were brilliant and really helpful as we were traveling from Bristol to Hartland and was cutting it fine to last food orders. We arrived, greeted with a lovely warm welcome, amazing food and service. I couldn't recommend The Cadeleigh Arms highly enough. Loved it.

Excellent food, excellent service and dog friendly to boot

1st visit definitely not the last even if over an hours drive fantastic Sunday lunch Michelin standard at reasonable prices cannot fault anything My partner had the Roast beef which was perfectly pink and I had Cod in langoustine sauce with roast vegetables both tasted sublime the creamed leeks were amazing

Lovely country pub serving good quality food. Would highly recommend

Our first visit to The Cadeleigh Arms for a Wedding Anniversary meal. As they are so dog friendly, we also took along our pooch, Tripp. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and made to feel extremely welcome. A fantastic menu and the quality of the food was terrific, with most ingredients sourced locally. Also they have a great wine list and an extensive list of guns and other drinks. Tripp loved his liver and veg supper The staff and owners deserve high praise. It is the best pub we have visited for a long, long time and will definitely be back there soon

Amazing food, super friendly staff too and dog friendly.

Really, really good food. Service also very good apart from one wee bit where our particular dining room didn't get visited by a waitress for a wee while, but essentially, an excellent experience. Definitely going back. The venison was gorgeous.

Such a lovely dinner here, honestly delicious and very reasonable for the quality of food. We also scooted in late on a Friday and they made the effort to keep the kitchen open for us which was very much appreciated

Fantastic nut roast and wonderful for dogs. The dogs get their own water, bed and menu. Gino loved his chicken dinner. Highly recommended

Delicious Subday roast in cosy welcoming surroundings.

Lovely service Lovely food highly recommend

Visiting the area , we stopped here on the way back from walking our two very muddy springers today. Really hard to find a pub that is dog friendly , even those that advertise as dog friendly never really are. We were really impressed . We were welcomed in by friendly staff and seated immediately along with our 2 dogs who were treated to a water bowl each, a blanket each and a treat. Thank you for welcoming us into your warm and cosy pub.

My family all agree that The Cadleigh Arms is the best pub that we have been to in the Crediton area. Very friendy. Really on purpose in everything that they do. Food very good with a good Vegan/Vegitarian range. Good range of local brews. We all want to visit again soon.

My best dining experience of the year (and we've been to some good places!). Griddled mackerel with Jerusalem artichoke shavings to start. It was wonderfully fresh and tasty. Pan fried bass with a fennel and pastis puree was utterly delicious I finished with an autumn fruit cheesecake with pistachio. All three dishes were lick-the-plate-clean good, the beer and cider were well kept, and there was a great selection of wine and soft drinks. The service was attentive, friendly and not overbearing. The Cadeleigh is a great pub/restaurant and well worth a visit.

Lovely Pub,great food and the Staff are really friendly and helpful. Will be visiting again and recommending this place to my family and friends. Pay them a visit,you will love the place👍

Great food & very warm & welcoming environment. One of the best if not the best roast I've ever had. Love their love for dogs too

The Cadeleigh Arms is by far my favourite place to eat. I live locally and its always my first choice to take family and friends for guaranteed excellent food and fabulous service. I'm vegan and there is always a great choice of yummy dishes Tina and Nick go to any lengths to ensure a great experience for every two and four - legged who visits them. I really can't praise them highly enough, nomatter how many times I visit and how sure I am of an excellent time they always manage to exceed my expectations! Thank you for all your hard work x

Not sure about the food but customer service is certainly non existent. We didn’t book and I appreciate places get full booked, which is fine. However, we called 7 times (from 6pm to 6.15pm) and the telephone goes to voice mail. When we popped over, to be check the situation, the woman rudely pointed towards a tiny sign with lots of writing saying we are fully booked. Before I even had time to open my mouth and ask where they can suggest we might find a space, this woman just stormed off. I was nice and friendly and therefore there was certainly no need to be this rude.

Very welcoming, limited menu but well executed.

We visited The Cadeleigh Arms with my son and his partner having received good reviews about their vegan food. We live in Exmouth so it was quite a journey to get there but we'll worth it. We couldn't fault the food or the service and will definitely visit again.

Blinding food in a cute location. Warm, friendly service with very reasonable pricing given the high quality. Brilliant Gastropub, producing a well curated, immaculately presented menu, which tastes as good as it looks. Would highly recommend.

The food was amazing and plenty of it,staff very pleasant and the prices are reasonable can't wait to go back.

Absolutely great pub. Great service, great food and great beer. We loved the doggy menu and our spaniel loved his liver dinner, yum yum. Many thanks.

Lovely lunch on the veranda. Very pleased to see a select menu that produces better results. Nice to read the list of local suppliers to the pub. Hake and, a lamb burger. Very nicely cooked and presented and served by attentive staff. A pint of Sandford elderflower cider much appreciated by the wife. A dessert of creme brulee with espresso and shortbread biscuit. Excellent combination and taste. My wife is an "expert" on creme brulee and said it was probably the best she has ever eaten. Well done CA; you have created a very special dining experience.

Amazing food and service 100,% recommend a visit to this pub

Great food, great service, well worth a visit

Excellent food and service very friendly and welcoming

Fantastic meal and great service. Really enjoyed our meal tonight. I could not fault anything. Wish we lived nearer and could visit regularly!

Excellent. Friendly staff, delicious and imaginative dishes, interesting wine list. Strongly recommended

Amazing food, great location and atmosphere. Highly recommended, especially for Sunday Lunch! There is evening a menu for dogs 👍

Excellent food and service. Very covid safe too. Thank you.

Very nice little country pub. Very pretty decor. The staff were very attentive and cheerful.

No pretences, just good solid food and the service just as great as the delicious food.

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere and the owners went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. We brought the dog who had a bed and water bowl setup for when we arrived and he even had his own menu!

Food was excellent and servers were pleasant. We had the antipaste, burgers, curry, chicken and most of the sweet menu and I dont think anyone could fall it on flavour or presentation. Really enjoyed the fact much of the food seemed to be local and they had fully catered for anyone who is vegan with a separate menu. Had a slight problem with the temperature as I think they had an open back door and I was a little cold. I did not have a chance to ask about closing it while there as I was with a group but I have the feeling they would have been helpful in sorting this out. Also would recommend getting a seat at the back of the pub to avoid the noisy road. But if that doesn't bother you then the window is quite pleasant with comfortable seats. The pub has adapted for the current Covid climate with hand sanitisation on entry as well as all over the pub, there are screens between front and back of bar and social distancing markers. I would go back to this gastropub.

Exceptional food,service and experience. Would highly recommend. Everything about the Cadleigh Arms was generous from it's warm and friendly service to the hot and delicious food. Thank you for a memorable time. As a side note as much effort went into our dog Obi. He didn't want to leave.

Great outdoor dinning and food was great

Delicious, hearty food. Fantastic service. Great surroundings.

We went here after hearing many positive things so it was fair to say we had high expectations. The cadeleigh arms did not disappoint. The vegan menu was outstanding and we felt so welcome. This is even more impressive given the current pandemic circumstances. We will definitely be back. This is a must visit for those in the area.

The village of Cadleigh sits smack in the middle of the beautiful Devon countryside which in the middle of a very damp March is beautiful. The Cadleigh Arms is the proverbial icing on the cake. We, a party of 12 pre booked with a deposit which is a little unusual but by the Lord Harry it was well worth it. Staff, lovely, ambience, a typical country pub, food, just stunning. I had the pork for Sunday lunch and it was probably the best that I have ever had. You'll never just be passing so make the effort. You won't regret it.

Lovely little place, very welcoming and the food was amazing. Decent size portions and helpful staff. Will go again!

Excellent Sunday lunch again! Thank you all at Cadeleigh.

Came across this lovely cosy pub by accident.. warm and friendly atmosphere.. great service from the lady behind the bar. Made me feel welcome... food tasty. I'll be back again soon 😊

Congratulations to Tina and Nick on providing such a lovely dining experience. We will be back for sure.

Fantastic pub Had a wonderful Sunday Roast. Very generous portions cooked to perfection.

This was an unexpected pleasure, found at random while looking for lunch. Welcomed by friendly staff who found us a table, got our food and drinks orders and left us a large free bowl of truffle popcorn to tide us over. Ordered the Sunday menu offerings of the hake dish and the mussels dish to share with my partner. Was then greeted by a frankly astounding array of food, the hake and mussel dishes themselves were delicious and generously large but also accompanied by fries, cheesy leeks and roasted seasonal veg (including maybe some of the best and biggest roast potatoes I've ever had). The only sadness was not having room for one of their great sounding desserts, but next time we're in the area, we'll try again. It's off the beaten track but well worth the diversion.

Excellent food, attentive staff, inexpensive definitely would visit again x.

Really top notch food, service and atmosphere .

Really excellent pub lunch. The four of us had beef, lamb, pork and homity pie and all were first class.

Rude rude rude. I rang to speak to someone about 5 minutes ago about a job advertisement, greeted by a rude man on the phone who told me they was in service and hung up the phone on me. And that's the way to get staff to work for the pub is it? Rude and ignorant, if your wanting a job there I wouldn't bother. If that's the way they speak to you on the phone then what's it going to be like actually working there. Don't put adverts for jobs out of you don't want people ringing up to apply. Disgusting attitude.

This lovely little pub in the small village of cadeleigh has amazing food and amazing staff and a real friendly country feel to it. I cant fault the food or the service. We'll be back. Thank you for a great lunch

Not really a tourist orientated place,fine dining a little expensive, First question have you booked,our reply we're passing, there answer we might not have enough food to feed you.

Great food including full vegan menu. Good beer options including Green Light IPA for drivers. Lovely and knowledgeable staff.

Went out here after seeing a road sign to try a new place. Friendly helpful staff good beers and cider. Food was disappointing The fish was from a packet not much flavour (was pollack). Burger OK as I was hungry. If we happen to be driving pass we'd pop in for a drink but would not go out of our way.

Service was good as was the drink range but food very poor very bland fish was not freshly cooked but seemed to be out of a packet (found out afterwards was cheap pollock) partner had a lamb burger which agian seemed to be brought in would not return

Great food, lovely country pub.

Very nice, very pleasant atmosphere.

Very nice food but exceptionally slow service. It took an hour from ordering for the food to arrive.

Great menu to choose from including delicious vegan options. Really nice staff and great service.

Great Sunday lunch very good service especially from the young man, super views lovely pub.

Spot on and top mon Cheers David👍

Really Truly Wonderful.. So high up in the hills and closer to God.

Really delicious food. Excellent vegan menu. Staff were very friendly and service was excellent.

Thoroughly recommended. Great location, delicious food, caring staff. Looking forward to our return visit very shortly.

Wonderful lunch and excellent service in the lovely garden.

Superb service and amazing food

We had one the best Sunday lunches ever having booked for 14 of us after a good walk in the area. The food was outstanding with a varied menu to choose from with the lamb rump particularly delicious. The staff were all very welcoming and attentive and we cannot wait to go back again when visiting. Thanks again to all the team and congratulations as I have just heard you won Best Pub and Chef of the Year - well deserved!

One of the best Sunday roasts I have ever had. Service was good, and they even let us take a meal away with us as one of our group was too "ill" to make it to the pub.
